Measurement of the Attenuation Coefficient in Fresh Water Using the Adjacent Frame Difference Method
The attenuation coefficient of a water body is one of the important factors for describing its features. However, its remote measurement in real time is still a challenge.

Theoretical analysis of backscattering in hollow-core antiresonant fibers
We present a theoretical analysis into the fundamental physical mechanisms contributing to backscattering in hollow-core antiresonant fibers. We consider Rayleigh scattering originating from the hollow regions of the fiber, which may be filled with gases,

A Fast Scattering Model for C-Band Data Simulation in Forest Scenarios
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data simulation of forest canopies is a common method used to study the interaction between radar and forests. The forest canopy contains a large number of small leaves, which require many computing resources to calculate ...

Soil Moisture Retrieval from the Chinese GF-3 Satellite and Optical Data over Agricultural Fields
Timely and accurate soil moisture information is of great importance in agricultural monitoring. The Gaofen-3 (GF-3) satellite, the first C-band multi-polarization synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) satellite in China, provides valuable data sources for soil

A Modified Two-scale Microwave Scattering Model for a Dielectric Randomly Rough Surface(in English)
In this paper, we present a Modified Two-Scale Microwave (MTSM) scattering model to describe the scattering coefficient of naturally rough surfaces. The surface roughness is assumed to be Gaussian in the proposed model so that the surface height z(x, y ...

TIME SERIES OF SALT CRUSTS IMAGED BY A DUAL POLARIZATION SPACEBORNE SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR (SAR) AT C-BAND OVER AN ANDEAN ALTIPLANO SALAR OF NORTHERN CHILE [PDF]
A dense time series of Synthetic Aperture Radar acquisitions at 6-day intervals between July 2017 to January 2019 collected with the C-band constellation Sentinel 1A and 1B is used to study salt crust evolution in an highland salar. Microwave response of

High-resolution measurements of scattering in wheat canopies-implications for crop parameter retrieval [PDF]
Polarimetric X- and C-band measurements by the University of Sheffield ground-based synthetic aperture radar(GB-SAR)indoor system provide three-dimensional images of the scattering processes in wheat canopies, at resolutions of around a wavelength (3–6 ...
